Description for TH17 Cells in Health and Disease
Hardback. TH17 cells are an independent subset of T cells with specific functions in eliminating extracellular pathogens not adequately handled by TH1 or TH2 cells. A better understanding of them will have wide implications for a variety of therapeutic strategies. Editor(s): Jiang, Shuiping. Num Pages: 536 pages, 20 colour tables, biography. BIC Classification: MB; MJCJ; MJCM; PSF; TDCW. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 33. Weight in Grams: 985.
“About 25 years ago, Mosmann & Coffman introduced the TH1 / TH2 paradigm of T helper cell differentiation which helped explain many aspects of adaptive immunity from eliminating intracellular versus extracellular pathogens to induction of different types of tissue inflammation. However, TH1 / TH2 paradigm could not adequately explain development of certain inflammatory responses which provided impetus for the discovery of a new subset of T cells called TH17 cells. After the discovery of differentiation and transcription factors for TH17 cells, it was clear that TH17 cells represent an independent subset of T cells with specific functions in ... Read more
